Fuck Things Up
Dope Lemon Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sometimes we just fuck things up
Ah, sometimes we just fuck things up
Hmm, sometimes we just fuck things up
Ah, sometimes we just fuck things up
I know sometimes ain′t the best to get around
Sometimes my shit get fucked up and I mess around
I guess it's just the way the world is tryin′ to bullshit now
A tree get fallen down, just sat down
Sometimes we just fuck things up
Sometimes we just fuck things up
Just fuck things up
I get your dolly frown to score some dope
I say funny things that piss you off
It's why it's been wakin′ you in the middle of the night
Oh, it′s why it's been keepin′ you from the light
Sometimes we just fuck things up
Ah, sometimes we just fuck things up
Ah, sometimes we just fuck things up
Sometimes we just fuck things up
We just fuck things up
Ah, sometime, for sometime
We just fuck things up
The lyrics to Dope Lemon's "Fuck Things Up" talk about how sometimes in life, we mess things up even though we don't intend to. The song acknowledges that sometimes our actions can have negative consequences, and that it's a part of life. The chorus repeatedly states "sometimes we just fuck things up" which speaks to this idea.
The verses dive a little deeper into these challenges. The first verse mentions how sometimes we get caught up in our own mess and can't seem to get out of it. The second verse touches upon how we might do things that hurt others, that we might not even realize we're doing. The song also touches upon how we can't always control the things that happen to us, as the line "it's just the way the world is tryin' to bullshit now" suggests.
